Forbes has had several Web3 endeavors including the 'Merchants of the Metaverse' standalone NFT on Nifty Gateway which sold for $333,333. Proceeds of the sale were donated to the Committee to Protect Journalists and the International Women's Media Foundation.
Forbes Virtual NFT Billionaires was an NFT project on Ethereum featuring billionaire themed ERC-721 tokens that participants could purchase on FTX.
The media company also minted its 2024 list of '30 Under 30' members as Ethereum NFTs.
Forbes also ventured into the metaverse courtesy of Polygonal Mind Creative Development Studio in November, 2022 with a gamified experience in the Sandbox that including wearable NFTs, Forbes' virtual NFT Billionaires gallery, a historical Forbes Highlander Yacht, and more.
